“Breakfast is ready. I have bacon sandwiches and coffee waiting for you!” His hand patted against my ass before the covers disappeared off my head. Propping myself up on my elbows, I scowled up at him.
“You do know most guys would be trying to get a girl into bed and not out of it, right?”
“I know. Most guys would also love for their girlfriends to not fall asleep on them whilst in the bed. You however continue to fall asleep so I am going to ply you with coffee in the hopes of something more than a few sentences before you fall back to sleep. Now, we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way.”
“What’s the hard way?” I just had enough time to finish the sentence before he was bending down, scooping me up with his shoulder against my stomach and lifting me off the bed. “You are such a caveman, Jason.”
“Hey, it’s effective. You are out of bed aren’t you?”
“You really aren’t normal, Reaper.”
“I know but it makes your life interesting.” He put me down in a chair at the counter in the kitchen and moved to stand on the other side of it. Pushing a mug of coffee toward me, I picked it up and took a small sip. Fuck that was good shit. I took another and let out a small groan. When he laughed at me, I flipped him the bird and just focused on my coffee. If he wanted me to eat, he had shit all chance of that happening before this coffee was gone. The fact that he hadn’t pushed a plate of food toward me though, told me he knew this too.
“What time are we going to your parents?” I asked between mouthfuls.
“In a couple of hours. You need to eat, wake up properly and I need to shower. I am sure you want to as well. I’ll need to get you away from coffee though.” I made a face.
“You aren’t funny. You know that right?”
“Oh no, I know I am hilarious. It’s the Tequila that you girls consumed last night that is making you think that. I wonder how hard Raven, Chaos and Corey are laughing this morning.”
“I am gonna remember this when you lot go out drinking and come home drunk off your asses with hangovers from hell the next morning.” I huffed.
“Goddess, the difference between us and you? We know to space out our shots. Not do them all in the first ten minutes of being at the bar.”
“Hey, that wasn’t me. That was Katy. I hope she is hurting today. Mia crying would be making it worse! At least I only have one pain in the ass to deal with.” JD flashed me a smirk and I set down my now empty coffee mug. Pushing it toward him, he slid a plate my way before turning to make me another coffee.
“Eat that, then you can have this. I let the first one slide.” I put my hand against my head and gave him a salute. Picking up my sandwich, I took a bite. That first mouthful was that perfect hit of grease that my body screamed for after a night of drinking. It was the second best feeling in the world. First being an orgasm at the hands of the man standing in my kitchen. I watched the domestic God that had taken over his body this morning and felt myself relax for the first time since last night. I had no idea what was going to happen now, but I knew that he would be here to pick up whatever pieces I needed him too. Just as I would do the same for him. We were a broken pair but together we were complete. I felt myself smiling as he turned to look at me, feeling my gaze on him.
“What?”
“Nothing. Just thinking about how much I love you.”
“You aren’t getting your coffee.” I gave him a look as he moved toward me. Setting my sandwich down, he spun the stool just a little bit and put his hands on my waist. Parting my thighs, he moved in between them. I looked up at him, my hands moving to rest on his side.
“I love you too, Ellie. More than anyone in this world. God help the fool who tries to take you away from me again or puts their hands on you. I really wish that last night hadn’t happened or that I had of been there to make sure that you were safe. I am grateful that Cormac was there though. I don’t even want to think about what could have happened.” I went to open my mouth to cut him off, but he bent down and kissed me to stop me, whispering softly against my lips. “Shh. Let me finish, Goddess.” I stayed quiet as he pulled away from my lips.
“We both know that I have never been the romantic type. I haven’t always been the best man and to say that I wasn’t looking for love would be an understatement. That was until you though. How I have managed to get someone as amazing as you to fall in love with me, I’ll never know. You are more than my girl, you are my best friend. You are one of the strongest people I know but there is more beneath the surface that you don’t let anyone see. You don’t need to though because everyone knows from meeting you just how amazing you are. Over the years we have known each other, you have always picked me. Now, I need you to choose me one last time. Let me make the ultimate commitment to you. I want you in my life until we take our last breath, although being selfish I would want to go first so that I would never have to live a second without you. That is a century away though, so we don’t have to worry about that yet. Ellie, I want you to pick me one last time. To be your forever, your husband, your end game.” A soft gasp escaped me as he dropped to the ground without warning after he pulled something out of his pocket and held out a small box to me. “Will you marry me?”
CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN
JD
I looked up at Ellie as the question left my mouth. Her eyes filled with tears but slowly, she nodded. As I spoke, her hands had moved up to cover her mouth so I couldn’t see the smile behind it. After she nodded though, she moved her hands away. “Yes!” I only had a split second before she was diving out of the stool at me. I caught her before she could hit the ground and made it so that she landed on me. Ellie kissed all over my face before sitting up and straddling my waist, her ass pressing against my groin, I had to stifle a groan. I laid my head back on the kitchen floor and sat the ring box on my chest. Taking the ring out, I slipped it on to her left hand.
“Thank you for making me the happiest man in the world today, Goddess.”
“I don’t know how you do it, Reaper, but you can always make me forget the worst times in my life and make them better. When everything turns to grey, I still see you. I know everything is gonna be okay.” Cupping the back of her neck with my hand, I pulled her down, my lips meeting hers as I moved my other hand to rest on her waist. Sliding my hand under her shirt, I brushed my fingertips over her skin. Ellie’s hips rocked against mine, causing me to groan into our kiss.
“Careful or we’ll be adding more time to our couple of hours before we need to leave.”
“I have eaten and am awake properly now. All that’s left for us to do is shower and I am sure we can kill two birds with one stone right now.”
“Well now that you have eaten, maybe it’s time I need to as well.” My lips curled into a smirk as I rolled us over so that she was underneath me. I pressed my lips back against hers and kissed her with a heated passion before pulling back slightly, my lips moving along her jawline and down to her neck. I pushed her tank top up and shifted down her body, my lips pressing against her stomach. Curling my fingers around the top of her panties, I slowly slid them down over her thighs, moving backwards as I brought the soft lace down over her knees and to her ankles. Dropping them down beside us, I laid down on my stomach between her thighs, trailing soft kisses along the inside as I moved to rest one leg over my shoulder.
Parting her folds with my fingers, I ran my tongue slowly along her slit. Inching a little closer to her, I curled my lips around her nub and began to suck against her. The sound of Ellie moaning my name caused my dick to harden as slipped two of my fingers inside her tight center, my lips continuing to suck against her nub as I worked to bring her to the brink of an orgasm. Her hips rocking against me told me she needed this as much as I did. I tightened my hold on her thighs, pulling away just slightly as I pumped my fingers in and out of her. Twisting them, I pressed my thumb against her clit, moving it in quick movements over the top. The dual action of my fingers and lips making her hips rock faster
, her moans becoming louder as her release continued to rise. She had been so tense as of late, I needed to make sure my girl was relaxed and taken care of.
“Fuck! Jase!” Her words were groaned out of her mouth, her body becoming more and more tense. Letting my fingers continue to work her center, I moved back up her body, my lips needing hers as she tightens around my fingers. As I reached her lips, Ellie wrapped an arm around me, her nails biting into my skin as she pulled me closer to her.
“Let go baby, so I can feel your walls wrapped around my cock. I need inside of you.” I buried my face in her neck and sucked her skin. Ellie’s hips began to move faster against my hand as her release hit its peak. Her eyes closed as she cried out my name in pleasure, I let out a soft growl against her skin as her body began to tremble, her fingernails digging deeper into my skin. I knew if I was to look later there would be blood where she’d left her mark, but I knew that was just small taste of what was to come. As I felt her body begin to relax, I slipped my fingers from inside her core. Moving both my hands, I shifted my body so that I was now hovering over her. Looking down at the face of the woman I loved with everything I had in me, the sated smile she gave me hit me with a new level of need for her. I was just about to move my hand down to undo my jeans, but Ellie beat me to it. I felt her hands along my thighs as she pushed down my pants, her thighs wrapping around me to pull me in closer. Fuck it was hot when she took control like that. Closing my eyes with a groan as she wrapped her hand around my dick, I shifted my hips as she positioned my tip at her entrance. Keeping my gaze fixed on hers as she looked back up at me, a small smirk playing at her lips. Sinking my dick inside her, I let out another groan as her walls tightened around me, her hips making sure that her legs locked around me as though she was never letting me go. I slowly moved my hips backwards, drawing my cock out of her. I hovered there for a moment, a small huff escaping her when I didn’t move. She shifted her hips telling me that she was close to taking control again, I waited a few more seconds before slamming my hips back toward her, sinking back inside her, I slowly began to rock against her.
Her body was quick to move with mine, her hips rising and falling to meet my every stroke until we were in perfect unison. Her walls tightening and relaxing as we worked toward our release, massaging my length as it moved back inside her. As my release began to quickly build with every stroke, I could feel her body tensing underneath me. She was close. I needed to make sure that she was taken care of again before I let myself go. The pleasure across her face told me I didn’t have long to wait. She arched her back one more time, driving my cock deeper inside her walls until my balls were against her ass, I held my position there, rolling my hips as she cried out my name one more time. As she rode out her release, the tightening of her walls and shaking of her body around me, I couldn’t hold back any longer. I pulled out and slammed my hips back into Ellie one last time, coming inside her as I let go. I pressed my lips against hers while we came down from the high we had just reached, kissing her with a slow passion, her body beginning to relax.
Moving an arm to wrap around her waist, I pulled her with me as I moved to lay on my back, Ellie now laying against me on my chest. I was fully aware that I was still buried inside her, but I couldn’t let her go just yet. I wasn’t sure that I was done with her body for now. The look in her eye telling me that her thoughts matched mine. We laid there catching our breath, silence filling the air. Our actions had spoken louder than our words ever could. There was no coming between us now.
CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT
Ellie
After our kitchen floor sex, we had moved to the bedroom where we went for round two. Round three happened when we were in the shower so by now I was thoroughly relaxed. Normally the thought of bringing a girl home to meet his parents would have had JD running for the nearest hills but his Ma and Pops loved me. They always had. Hell hath no fury like his mother though because when she found out that he and I had broken up because he was a dickhead, I honest to God thought she would try and kill him. She always threatened him with “I brought you into this world, I can damn well take you back out of it.” I knew she would too. If people thought his Pops was terrifying, they hadn’t seen anything yet. Standing at only five foot something, she could still bring a grown man to his knees. He loved his Ma though. His Pops too. When we talked about a relationship early on, he had always wanted a relationship like theirs. Ups and downs had no effect on them. They handled it.
As we headed out of town, I was a little nervous though. We hadn’t spoken to them recently, so we were about to hit them with four pieces of news. Three parts bad but one part good. It didn’t take him too long to get to their place, so I didn’t have long to feel the nerves. When he looked over at me as he pulled into the driveway, I smiled to try and let him know that I was okay. Cutting the engine, he leant over and kissed me softly, quietly calling bullshit on me. He gave me a wink before pulling back and taking his belt off. I shook my head and got out of the truck. JD moved around to open my door, I slid down and took his hand again as we headed up to the front door. He didn’t have a chance to even open the screen before his Ma had the door open.
“Jason. Is everything okay?” Opening the screen, he let go of my hand and wrapped his arms around her, giving her a hug.
“Everything is fine, Ma, just came to be a good son and see my parents.” She gave him a squeeze before pulling back and swatting him with the towel.
“Bit of bloody warning next time. Give a poor old woman a heart attack.”
“Oh please, Ma. You are tougher than Pops. You are fine.” He gave her a grin and she swatted him with the towel again.
“How you put up with him, dear, I will never know.” She glared at him and moved to give me a hug hello.
“It’s touch and go but he makes it through every night without me suffocating him with a pillow.” He snorted and moved through the house to find Pops. I knew he would be in his back shed.
“Are you two?” I gave her a nod and grinned as she hugged me again. “Thank the lord, my boy has finally come to his damn senses.” JD pushed the back door open and went out the back.
“I heard that!”
“I meant you too!” I couldn’t help but laugh at the interaction between the two as he walked down the back steps. Pops must have heard the commotion because he stuck his head out of the shed. I could see the shock in his face that he was actually seeing us and opened up the door. The shed was his man cave. After he retired from club life, he spent his time buying old cars and fixing them up. Some he would sell and some he would keep. Leaving them to their toys, I took a seat at the chairs on the deck that looked over their property. If I didn’t have the club to go to, I would gladly move out here and just spend my days, sitting out here and reading. Nothing but quiet surrounding me. The last few days making that more tempting. Looking up as the back screen door opened, I gave Adele a smile as she moved to sit beside me, setting down a glass of sweet tea.
“It’s so good to see you, Ellie. My son needs to bring you around more.” I reached out toward her and took her hand, giving it a small squeeze.
“I will make sure that he does. If not, I will drive out here to see you myself.”
“Please do! I have always loved you. I am so glad that you are giving him a second chance.”
“I couldn’t not. I have always loved him but before now, the timing just wasn’t right for us. Now we have both grown up and gone through whatever we needed to. Letting the past go, we have our whole future ahead of us.” I had to slide my left hand underneath my leg. Difficult to do given the size of the rock that JD had put on it, but I promised not to spill the beans until we were together. “You and Joshua doing good?”
“We are love. He spends most of his time building his cars. Whatever makes him happy though. Means he isn’t annoying the hell out of me all day.” I couldn’t help but laugh at that. Picking up my drink and taking a sip, I sat it back down as JD and his Pops came out of the shed. He
moved up the stairs and came to stand beside me.
“Okay, Jase said he needed to talk to us about some things. Do we need to be seated for this?”
“Not sure, Pops, might be an idea though.” He gave him a nod and moved to sit beside Adele. Crouching down beside me, he looked up at me before looking to his parents.
“We have some good news and some bad news. Which do you want first?”
“What do you have more of?”
“Bad news.”
“Okay, hit us with the good news then!” I slid my hand out from under my thigh and JD took it in his.
“I asked Ellie to marry me and she said yes!” In the blink of an eye, Adele was up and out of her chair, throwing her arms around us both.
“Congratulations! It’s about time!” We both squeezed her softly before she pulled away to look at the ring.
“Oh wow! That is such a gorgeous ring! Did you pick it out alone son?” He nodded softly.
“I did, Ma. I wanted it to be a complete surprise so I hadn’t told anyone.” I tucked myself into his side as Joshua moved over to shake his hand.
“Congrats son. Good to see her makin’ an honest man out of ya.”
“It had to happen sooner or later.” I looked up and gave him a grin. JD dropped his head and pressed his lips against mine. Adele and I took our seats again, but Joshua and JD stayed standing. I knew by the look on his face, Joshua was preparing for the worst.
“So, what’s the bad then? Is it club stuff?”
“In a way… It is.” I squeezed his hand and we proceeded to tell them everything. By the time we’d finished, Adele was in tears and I could see Joshua’s jaw flinching in anger. Maybe we should have told them in small doses. Maybe not. Either way, they had a right to know.
“We are sorry to drop this all on you, but it seemed like every time we turned around, we got hit with something else.”
